'The first full academic year following the Department of Education’s release of its Sexual Assault Directive has come to a close.

Several of these cases, reported in the media during the 2011-2012 school year, had been adjudicated before the OCR policy took effect:

University of Hawaii at Manoa

Ogino did acknowedge, however, that some rape accusations did turn out to be “unfounded.” (2)'
